Honestly, I never thought I would end up needing a second revision surgery. My first and second surgeries were both incision-based. The results were disappointing, but what was hardest for me was not being able to communicate with the hospital. I had my revision surgery at the same hospital too, and every consultation felt like it was guided more by the surgeon’s opinions than by what I was actually dissatisfied with or which parts were stressful for me. So I kept getting more exhausted My eyes kept bothering me, but I was also scared to look into another surgery, and for a while I thought maybe I should just live like this and gave up on revision surgery altogether. Then one day I saw a photo of myself and got shocked again lol so I started looking into a second revision. I found Olo while watching YouTube, and since they had many revision eye surgery cases, I made a consultation appointment. During the consultation, I was glad that they listened to me for much longer than I expected. I thought I just wanted to lower the line, but after looking at my eyes, they also talked about my skin condition and the difference in strength between my left and right eyes when opening them. That helped me understand why my eyes looked uneven. In the end, I had a line-lowering procedure with an incision and a ptosis correction procedure at the same time. Right after surgery I was, of course, very worried lol because it was a second revision..^^ The incision line was red and there was swelling, so I thought maybe it had failed again, but as time passed it settled down more naturally than I expected. Now the redness is almost gone and the line is much cleaner than before. Especially before, one eye looked sleepier than the other, but now from the front it feels much more balanced? And one unexpectedly good thing was the aftercare. People getting revision surgery really worry about even tiny things.. But every time I went in for follow-up, they checked my condition and explained things whenever I had questions, so that made me feel at ease. If you are thinking about revision surgery or a second revision, definitely go to several places for consultations. Every hospital looks at different points and explains things differently I was extremely sensitive because this was my third surgery, but at least this time I felt like they really listened to me, and that was what satisfied me the most. Oh, and another unexpected thing was that after my surgery, the person in charge kept contacting me. Asking whether I had any discomfort, whether my eyes were okay, whether I was recovering well? Honestly, it is rare to find a place that checks on you this much when they are probably busy, right I had struggled a lot because of my double eyelids, so in my own way I think it was a good experience.
